The Fed will save $50 million/year Wall Street execs from paying the price for stupid decisions. They will save banks from paying the price for making reckless loans. The result will be 50% inflation rate, aspects of socialism in the economy, rampant crime, corruption and fraud combined with massive shifts in wealth, meaning dire straits for most of the population and impoverishment of the middle class.

i spent 45 minutes going through it quickly, the charts i understood fully were as they say 'worth a thousand words'...the implications of the potential future losses (we don't know what we don't know) absolutely makes sense wrt the credit market freeze... yet most of the analysts on cnbs are talking about how irrational the market is (meaning the fear is unjustified) i think to the contrary....it is quite prudent to raise capital (loss reserves) when you have no real idea how far this thing is going and what your ultimate exposure is
